Location

CodeBase in Argyle House on the corner of Lady Lawson St and West Port. This month we'll be in the board room on floor M where the main CodeBase reception is. Please try to arrive between 18:30 and 19:00.

Some folk usually head to the Hanging Bat or the Beehive after for a couple of drinks and more JavaScript-related discussion. If you just wanna join us for a drink, send a tweet and we'll let you know what time we'll be there!

Sponsors

Big thanks to our sponsors RightScale for providing food and FanDuel for drinks, they're both hiring front-end JavaScript developers among other positions. Also to our venue CodeBase for providing the event space.

Interesting in speaking?

We're looking for speakers at future events, whether it's 20-30mins or a 5 minute lightning talk. You don't need to be an expert or an experienced speaker, just enthusiasm for something that interests you. Please get in touch with me on rory@fitzpatrick.fm or grab me on the night, I'll be happy to talk through any ideas/concerns you have or put you in touch with someone that can.

Code of Conduct

Long story short: Be awesome to each other.

Our goal is to have an awesome and inclusive community meetup where people meet, hang out together, chat, listen to talks, exchange ideas and make new friends. Any harmful or discriminating behaviour will not be tolerated and results in the offending person being expelled from the meetup.
